Valley of the Eagles May Wedding

My husband and I got married the first weekend of May this year and are so happy we chose Valley of the Eagles for the ceremony and reception. Candace was so helpful to us and we had a great experience planning the wedding with her. The bridal party was able to get ready in the bridal suite. The groomsmen and some family were able to play golf on the simulators before the ceremony. The ceremony site behind the building is beautiful and we ended up having amazing weather the day of the wedding. Our decorator added some tulle to the Arche and a few signs directing guests but we didn’t need to add much outside. We also had our cocktail hour in the outside bar area. The reception area inside worked perfectly for us and our DJ. Our decorator added some greenery to the centerpieces provided by the venue but, again, we didn’t need to add much of our own decor. We opted for the buffet and late night pizzas (the guests LOVED the pizza so much!). The bar staff was also wonderful. We are very happy we chose Valley of the Eagles. All of our photos turned out beautifully.

Amazing venue

I cannot say enough good things about our experience. The venue was beautiful and has so many included add ons such as draped florals and greenery walls. The staff is WONDERFUL.
Everyone is so kind and made the night go seamlessly. Now for Candace-I would have not made it through the day without her!! She is literally heaven sent and made the day go perfectly. She goes above and beyond day of coordinator duties and was the best part of this planning experience with our venue. Candace I hope you know that you made the day better than I could have dreamed and I am forever grateful for your help! | LOVED this venue!

Incredible!

11/10, 6 Stars, 101%. Everything was perfect. We are so grateful for Candace and her team, they went above and beyond for us this past Friday 8/25/23. From handing out bubbles to my guests, bring my husband and I appetizers during our cocktail hour photos, turning on a bubble machine I forgot to delegate, to even washing out my Tupperware I left at the venue the night of our wedding. We felt so accommodated, special, and like we were all on the same team to ensure our vision came to life. We received so many compliments on the venue and that the food was “the best wedding food I’ve ever had!” (Chicken and sirloin, veggie pasta). The staff was incredible kind and made us feel like we were right where we were supposed to be. Thank you so much Valley of the Eagles-I can’t complain one bit. We are so thankful!

Best day ever!

I am so incredibly happy that we used Valley of the Eagles for our wedding! Everything turned out better than I even imagined! Candace was so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure it was a great day! She works along side her staff doing whatever is needed- moving tables and chairs and all- to make sure the event is a success! We had to move the ceremony indoors the day before the wedding due to weather. Candace and her team made it absolutely beautiful! The chef was so kind and open to any adjustments on the menu. The bartenders were so fun and outgoing! And whenever they saw me coming they knew exactly what drink to get me and got it to me immediately. I wish we could do it all again!

Spooktacular Hallowedding

Janet and Candace helped make our Hallowedding day (on Halloween) our favorite party ever! With all of the extra guidelines to follow during covid and that extra stress, those two helped make sure we felt as little of it as possible all weekend we were at Valley of the Eagles. The venue is beautiful with plenty of space, both indoor and outdoor, and delicious food. The event staff even got into the spirit and danced with us a bit. Candace rocked everything the day of and was a wonderful smiling face to see everywhere we might be in need of her. Thank you to everyone who helped make our day spooktacular!

Excellent Venue!

The Valley of the Eagles wedding venue was excellent. We really enjoyed planning for our wedding at this venue. Due to Covid, the wedding planning was already stressful trying to move the dates several times. We were so grateful to have an opportunity to work with Janet and Candace at the Valley of the Eagles. They were very professional and very accommodating of our needs for our special day. They definitely made it so much easier in terms of planning and recommendations/advice on other things that go along with the planning not just the venue itself. They made us feel like a part of the family and made sure we were taken care of. They were there whenever we needed them. They definitely made us feel easier planning on having the wedding celebration there. The venue itself comes with a great view of the golf course and excellent lights/fire pits decoration on the patio. From my perspective, the lights which are in place on the patio area makes it easier for the decoration itself from your side. We also had some of our wedding pictures taken on the 18th hole of the golf course by the bridge. The golf course crew was more than accommodating by letting us use a few of the golf carts. This made the transition so much easier for us taking the pictures by the water and then going back to the venue. The team also made sure that while we were taking pictures, the guests were served appetizers/cocktails. The food was awesome, we and our guests enjoyed it a lot. The team did an excellent job making sure everyone felt comfortable and were there when needed. We could not have asked for a better venue to have our special celebration at. All of our guests talked very highly of the Valley of the Eagles as a wedding venue!

Stunning Venue and Exceptional Catering Service

***HIGHLY RECOMMEND this one of a kind VENUE****
Unlike the typical golf course banquet hall, Valley of the Eagles has an amazing and spacious facility, beautifully furnished with quarry rock walls, live edge wooden counter tops, and contemporary features. The VIEW from the banquet hall and the outdoor deck is truly breathtaking.

The outdoor deck is very large. The exterior space was fully integrated with the indoor banquet hall through the opening of the oversized garage door.

My bridal party had fun getting ready on site and took many First Look photos in and around the clubhouse.
My husband and I got many stunning wedding photos near green 18 and on the wooden bridge across the river.
WE had the Classic Buffet with chicken and beef, and everything was delicious and timely served. Due to Covid and the health concerns of our guests, we paid a small upcharge for the buffet items plated by the servers on the buffet line. Many guests complimented and appreciated this thoughtful service.
Bartenders were the best, funny and fast, in serving our guests. Many guests also loved the second bar that was setup on the deck, opened to serve right after the ceremony and through the end of the cocktail hour. Our friends were able to hang out on the deck, enjoying the view of the course and the Black River.
The catering crew was exceptionally attentive, fast in clearing the plates, and was always around when needed.
Candace is very sweet and accommodating. She went above and beyond for us in making sure every detail is executed by her crew and among all the vendor
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
